SENSATION IN ARMY CIRCLES. Omaha Military Men Stirred Up Over the Latest Court-Martial Order. TALK WITH SLUGGER SULLIVAN, What He Mas to Say of Pugilistic Matters—General O'Brien's Fun- eral Arrangements—Arrested for Larceny—Jury List, Military Sensation. ‘The court martial order issued departraent headquarters which calls for the assembling of the court at Fort DuChesne, Utah, Febrnary 7, has excited considerable interest in nulitary circles in Omaha, The fact that two colonels, three lieutenant colonels and six majors compose the court is conclusive evidence that a ficld officer is to be the subject of trial and investigation This added to the fact that only a few weeks ago Colo. nel Edward Hatch, of the Ninth cavalry was at from Chesne, makes it certain that M Frederick Benteen of the Ninth cavalry lately in command at that post 15 to be the subject of ol inquiry by court martial. No_informa tion on the subject can be obtained from those in authority, but there is no ques tion as to the fact as _stated. Major Ben. teen is a gallant and brilliant oflicer of cavalry who with Reno supported Custer in his }uq fight, and held the ground against overwhelming numbers after the annilulation of ~ Custer's command n the battle on the Little Big Horn. he announcement which appeared in the morning papers that itenant Colonel Ab<ulom Baird, inspector gen- eral, had been ordered’ to procced at once from Washington to Fort Du Che 18 taken as evidence that the army h quarters at Washington will not permit the es o come on trial unless the cir- imstances are so flagrant as to prevent it being arranged otherwise without det- riment to the service. It is possible that Major Benteen’s offense may have heen some trifling violation of the regulations which while demanding reprimand need not necessarily submit that brave and gallant oflicer to the humiliation of a court martial. If such should be the case the court martial may be dissolved with- out session, Fort Du PUGILISTIC POINTERS, Jobn L, Sullivan and What He Has to Say. John L.

Prince Answers Certain Ob- Jections, Certain dyspeptic individuals, whose names 1t is not necessary to mention, are trying to make it appear that Saturday night's race between Prince and Dingley was a tamely contestea one, and that the record was far below what it ought to have been. All fair-minded persons who witnessed the race agreed that it was one of the best ever seen in this city. Both men did their best to win, and the conse quence was that there were frequent and exciting spurts_of speed which served to keep the enthusiasm of the spectators at ighest pitch aking of the record made, Princ yesterday WVell, Ladmit that this ord for the fifty miles was not good as has been made on previous oceasions, The reason i3 apparcnt enough. The first twenty miles we raced so hard that botn of us were exhansted and could not do the remaining thirty miles in as good time as we otherwise might have The record for the twenty miles was better than anv ever made, If we had bheen contented to start off at a moderate pace we could have finished much better at tie close. You take a horse that 1s ible of trotting a mile you expeet him to run ina five mile you_wouldn’t make him trot the first two mil 10, for at the end of the third m ou would run him to a standstill. On the other hand you would let him trot inabout three min- utes, and in that way he would be able to finish the five miles with a good spurt of speed, It was exactly so with Saturday night's race.” The Boom is Immense IN SoutTit OMANIA PROPERTY, AND AL- BRIGHT'S CHOICE LEADS THEM ALL THERE 13 NOT A BAD LOT IN THIS BEAU- FUL PROVERTY. —— 500 Per Cent Profit been made since Jast August by pur- sers of lots from Mr. Albright, in the addition west of ALsricur’s Cholce.

In order to make the board of trade mémbership more valuable and sought for, it is the inten- tion now not alone to raise the membership fee, but also to limit the number, It is gen- erally coneeded that a limitation upon mer bership eannot fail to make it more valuable, and the amendment ought to pass at onee. WOLK OF THE BOARD, It is eratifying for me to state that the eity council has taken action upon several recon mendations made by the board of trade last year, among others to enact a building ord! nance, and create a building inspector, as well a a boiler inspector. The Omaha Exposition building has been completed during the y . and we had an exposition last August which was a surprise not alone to strangers, but to our own citl- zens, as they had no idea such an exhibit could bo gotten up in Omaha.
